Well this is my very first grow of any kind and I'm just glad she hasnt died. I've been checking her daily to keep the ph balanced. It doesnt really change much. The first time I mixed nutrients I immediately saw a light golden brown edge appear I wish I took a picture of it. I diluted the mix and she took off again. At the start f week two I think she got a nute lockout from low ph. I made a rookie mistake. Now I'm hoping she recovers so she can continue into week 3.

MikeyPstarted grow question 5 years ago
Today is the end of day 7 since she broke ground. I've been using distilled water and the ph seems good. I added 1.25 ml and now The ppm is at around 38 ppm. Are the tips of the new leaves supposed to be that light green or are they getting burned?

Leaves. Color - Pale

Since it is hydro, you need to add nutes right away, try 0,5EC (250 PPM) for a start

Well I added 280 ppm nutes and she showed signs of burn and the leaves dropped. I lowered the ppm to 200. Is that good enough? It's a very small amount of brown around the edges but I dont want it to get bad.

That kind of burn around the edges of the leafs is usually related to magnesium deficiency, so make sure you're adding micro to your mix . there isnt one single level for PPMs, just follow and respond to your plant. Hope this helps ๐Ÿš€

I would say yes to light too close plus some heat stress. The yellowing in the middle and the curling of the leaves is a sign of heat stress and light burn. I add a small amount of nutrients at about day 8-10 of life, or day1-5 of Veg depending on how she looks. Start low 150-200 PPMs and work your way up slowly. Good luck and happy growing!! ๐Ÿ‘Š

Your plants look healthy and very frosty. Without being there on a daily basis it can be tricky making a diagnosis or giving to much advice. I, however, think your light is insufficient and that is why they are thin and wispy. I could be wrong though. What kinda lighting are you using? Peace

@MikeyP, if that is the Horticultural Lighting Group HLG 100 V2 3000K Quantum board: Equivalent to 220W T5 or 300W CFL output or 200W metal halide High Efficiency Quantum Board V2 with Samsung LM301B LED's Actual Power consumption 95 Watts. Veg Footprint 3'X3', Flowering Footprint 2'X2' 3000K White Light Full Spectrum for Flowering and full cycle ???? Then, yes you would probably need 2 more, 3 total to get some decent buds. First, 3000K is an okay spectrum, 3500k is better for veg and flower. You would be better off with some of what I use. I have 10 of these lights and grow pounds of cannabis. 8 - 3500k COB, 1 - 2700k COB and 1 - 6500k COB. The beauty is they are single lights, 60w each, and you can start with 1 and expand as needed or desired. Check out the lights at Cobshop dot net They are less expensive than what you have and made especially for growing cannabis. Peace

@MikeyP, wow that's amazing for tmac first timer. @fast_buds genetics are amazing but it still takes a good grower with proper conditions. Dont sell your abilities short there my friend. Again, very nice work and keep it up.

@Denzul, thanks! She looks way better than I could have imagined for my first grow. It has to be her genetics cause I dont have green thumbs.
